The Senate spent its final days before the election eliminating labor rights for a subset of workers who are disproportionately young Black men. For the win! Here's a rundown of the Protect College Sports Act, which mostly restores the NCAA cartel to limit athlete compensation:

Union Busting Comes to Campus - The American Prospect
The Senate-passed Protect College Sports Act is really an anti-labor bill meant to restore the NCAA cartel at the expense of the athletes.

A federal judge ruled that the Trump admin violated her order prohibiting overcrowding at ICE's Baltimore holding room — the very facility I've been sounding the alarm on after we saw this terrible footage last year. The judge is right to threaten contempt — the abuses must end.

Welp. Republicans distancing themselves from Trump, saying it’s time to end the war. Congress introduced War Powers resolutions to force Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from Iran. Ashley Hinson: NO Jon Husted: NO Tom Tiffany: NO They had a chance to end it, but they voted against it.

The Trump White House official app is fraught with trackers. The White House app covertly collects excessive user data and shares it with third-party trackers while sidestepping federal security rules. For example, the app includes scripts to monitor a user's location several times per minute.
